Answer:

C. 59

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Total number of seats = 12,715

Number of occupied seats = 7,512

[tex] Percentage = \frac {Number\; of\; occupied \;seats}{Total\; number \;of \;seats} *100 [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] Percentage = \frac {7512}{12715} *100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = 0.5908*100 [/tex]

Percentage = 59.08

Therefore, to the nearest percent is 59%
